ARCHITECTURE.

Posting early as the rain is now back on for the day, however there was a sunrise (at last) this morning, so hurried to the town to get a blip for the challenge (thanks to Steveng for hosting). Managed to get the famous church before the rain returned and looks like it is on once again for the day.
St. Mary's Church, Kirkintilloch is a very impressive building. It's imposing gothic tower can be seen almost anywhere in the town. It was completed in 1914 at a cost of £15,000. The Rev Morrison travelled around Great Britain to cherry-pick the best architectural features from the churches he visited. Interestingly while most churches traditionally face east, St Mary's is built along a north south line.
Hope this will do for the challenge.
My extra is of the brief sunrise this morning.
